Calling Mankind to the Truth

An Islamic Treasury of Virtues The traditions—sunnah—of the Prophet Muhammad, may peace be upon him, and the lives of his companions and those closely associated with them, serve as a major source of religious enlightenment in theory and in practice. This book endeavours to present these ideas in the simplest and most direct way. In that it culls from authentic sources the sayings and deeds of the Prophet and those inspired by him, it brings to us a complete and, above all, human picture of true Islamic behaviour.
